Unhooked Backroll trick tip videos

The unhooked backroll is a great progression trick when first starting to unhook. Once you have hooked in backroll sorted, and have started throwing your first unhooked raleys you're ready to try unhooked backrolls.

For the backroll, it's you need to tack off with good pop and throw your head over your back shoulder. You need enough air to make sure you get the full 360 degree rotation.

A common mistake is leaning too far back which results in a horozontal spoin that is swiftly followed by a buttcheck. Prevent this by getting your legs as high as possible during the rotation.

As you come round the last part of the rotation spot your landing, then bend your knees for the landing and ride away smooth.
